That I did. Not *.exe though, being on a Linux OS, Xubuntu to be precise.

Translating this into Linux, all this works fine.

Thanks for your detailed description, but I'm afraid that's not it. 
Meanwhile I uninstalled all my texlive packets and reinstalled TeXworks 
without any of the texlive components, and reinstalled ConTeXt 
standalone strictly according to this: 
http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Ubuntu#With_ConTeXt_Standalone_.E2.80.93_should_work_with_all_Ubuntu_versions 
-- and the problem persists. mtxrun is found and started allright, but 
it complains that it can't find some files, that a database is outdated, 
and that it can't find some other files and stops without a pdf. Below 
is the complete console output as shown in TeXworks. Calling "context 
test" in a terminal window works fine, though.

Cheers -- Thomas
